Protect? Really important? Low level content

[Bovinity]

I don't get what you're not understanding about this. In a low level dungeon all your cross class options has virtually no impact on the pace of the dungeon. Why sit and argue and quarrel with everyone over one cross class skill that's just kind of expected whether or not it makes any difference? It just seems so silly to sit there and stomp your feel saying "no, i'm not casting protect, i'm casting aero."

Well that goes both ways, then. If it's such a non-factor, then why make a big deal over which spell he's using? If it's such a non-factor, why are they the one expected to do what other people want him to do when they stomp their feet over it?
